– DPCM byte read now correctly takes 2 cycles.
– Improved NES CPU vs APU/audio synchronization (controlled by quality setting).
– Better error messages for files that can’t be loaded.
– Fixed broken seek, and restored the « fask seek » option. (Seeks as if quality=1, normally OK.)
– If in_yansf.ini can’t be found or created next to in_yansf.dll, will try to save settings to %AppData%\NSFPlay\ instead.
– N163 compatbility options for phase write protect and limited wavelength. (Supports old NSFs that are not hardware accurate.)
– Option to randomize starting triangle phase.
– NSFE VRC7 chunk implemented, provisional support for YM2413 variant.
– Changed Flash At lightbar function to work at 0% battery
– Removed unwanted boxing for AdvancedColorDialog OnUpdateColor event
– Fixed color dialog error for Check Battery Life special action menu
– Altered Controller Readings tab to better represent mapped state
– Changed exclusive mode failure message to mention UWP apps causing exclusive mode problems
– Fixed auto profile loading for hotplugged controllers
– Implemented square stick functionality. The analog stick can now be mapped so a push to a diagonal will reach a square corner of (1.0, 1.0)
– Make sure to stop USB controller while suspending. Fixes out of bounds errors appearing
– Changed haptic changing routine to skip always searching for existing device
– Do not reset custom led setting while switching profiles. Fixes custom color option for controller slot superior at 360 steering wheel mode changes provided by @mika-n. Improved deadzone handling. Fixed a bug in >360 turn range calculations. Small performance improvements.
– Use implicit extra dead zones for special actions
– added Dynamic Rate Control
– smooth audio + video at the same time
– rewrote all audio drivers
– added xaudio2, wasapi exclusive mode
– show audio buffer usage statistics
– added hotkey to enable/disable all sync options at once
. disabled emulator input recognition when minimized
. separated c64 and amiga sub menus from each other
– Fixed loading of Spectrum +3 disk images that use SpeedLock.
– Fixed uPD765 FDC status, as expected by SpeedLock boot loader.
– Disk-based Spectrum +3 software that uses SpeedLock tries booting now.
– Fixed WD1793 FDC status reporting, as expected by Sam Coupe.
– Disk-based Sam Coupe software works now.
– Fixed Sam Coupe memory page switching.
– Fixed Sam Coupe line coincidence interrupts.
– Added loading of Sam Coupe disk images.
– Added extra 256kB RAM to Sam Coupe.
– The [ALT] key acts as both FIRE and CONTROL in Sam Coupe mode.
CPU/JIT: Fixed potential instability and crashes caused by recompiler optimizations
debug: Fixed WUD filesystem dump feature
debug: Frame profiler now displays 9 different stats. From bottom to top:
gray -> Idle (waiting for more commands from CPU)
pink -> Wait for async (waiting for texture readback, occlusion queries. Explicit or by GX2DrawDone)
dark red -> Texture creation, texture upload, texture cache management, sampler settings
dark green -> Attribute/vertex buffer management, attribute data upload
blue -> Shader management, shader compilation, uniform buffer management, uniform data upload
purple -> Index cache management, index data upload
green -> Render target management, FBO creation, texture creation
yellow -> OpenGL glDraw calls
light gray -> Everything else
# New in 1.15.3:
general: Display meta/bootTvTex.tga when booting a game and while compiling shaders (ref: http://bugs.cemu.info/issues/1)
general: Reworked shader cache loading screen to scale better on higher resolutions
general: Changed settings.xml to be more portable (use relative paths where possible)
CPU/JIT: JIT recompilation of functions is now multi-threaded if multi-core recompiler is enabled (slightly reduces micro-stutter caused by recompilation)
debug: Added debug option which dumps the WUD filesystem of the currently running game to dump/ folder (WUD/WUX extractor)
debug: Fixed a bug where the RAM dump feature would silently fail because it would not create the dump folder
GX2: Added frame profiler (can be toggeled via debug menu)
GX2: Optimized texture loader
GX2: Minor optimizations in various GX2 API functions
GX2: Fixed random crash due to out-of-bounds access in texture code
GX2: Fixed crash that could occur when GPU buffer cache accuracy was set to high
GX2: Increased time before restorable textures are dropped from texture cache (from 15 seconds to 2 minutes)
coreinit: Fixed incorrect timeout calculation in spinlock AcquireSpinLockWithTimeout API
padscore: WPADGetInfoAsync no longer crashes when no callback is provided
input: DirectInput rumble will only be initialized if the rumble value is set to non-zero (workaround for a crash bug in a common DirectInput driver)
– Changed MMC3 to start with 16kB page at $8000
